Europe is perhaps the most influential continent in the world, in terms of language, culture, cuisine and the arts. Although it is the smallest of the continents, Europe’s collection of countries provides a range of cultures that is on par with the best in the world. From the great cities of Paris, Berlin, Rome, Athens, and Amsterdam to the beauty of Mediterranean islands such as Malta, Corsica, and Sicily, it is no wonder that Europe is still among the most visited regions in the world.
